Trentham is a nice area but it is swamped with window cleaners, this should not put you off though.

when I had my big window cleaning round we covered Cheadle, Doveridge, Sudbury, Kingsley, Kingsley Holt, Leek, Ipstones.

For me rural always worked, they paid better, took longer to develop but were always worth it in the long run.

Good luck in what you are trying to do, if you want a chat give me a call. I am local for the next couple of weeks, if I can help in any way I am happy to do so.

Good luck

cheers rob,had quite a few ask for quotes in cheadle over last 2 years prob about 10 or so and said i dont cover that area only cuz it would start as 1 job which wouldnt be worth it but now would of bin ok if they were priced at £1 a window i suppose,maybe thats an area try

I know carl at Clear view is on here tonight, sure I drove past him yesterday somewhere local. He does a lot of work round our way and in Cheadle.

Whenever I got a lone call I would go and do a price and ask them to recommend a couple of friends, to make it worth my while. Seemed to always get results. Don't ignore the single calls.

I got one phone call to clean one house in Doveridge, on the other side of Uttoxeter and it became 140 houses on monthly cleans.

that worked well then  ,yeh wish id of taken them on now,had a few quotes in meirpark aswell which i tried to price well got 1 out of 6, that was only £7 job which is 7 windows so just makes me re-think my prices,honestly cant believe how some lads get £12 on a regular basis for 8-9 window houses,i do under value myself tho for some reason,maybe if i was wfp id stick to higher end pricing to cover the extra costs involved

It's a confidence thing. Also about having the uniform, sign writing. When your round is pretty full you can take a chance on upping new clean pricing and it doesn't matter if you don't get them. You will get them when you believe you will!!( no mumbo jumbo crap - confidence is infectious!!)

only bin going 2 years and not long had full round can still squeeze bit more in tho,iv got t-shirts with my logo thats it tho did have sign written van but just upgraded and dont want sign it up until im wfp as will advertise that instead of trad,the other thing is if i pick work up next door to a house in my compact stuff which is £6 i cant charge neighbour £10 incase they get talking or the neighbour recommended me,either way in next couple of years im hopeing that my round will start to improve price wise as now im full,just wait a see eh!
